Welsh culture on server 2003

[Bobbus]

Hi,

I'm trying to change the culture to Welsh by doing the following:

Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = New CultureInfo("cy-GB")
Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture

The above code works okay on Windows XP, but fails to work on Server 2003.
The following error occurs on Server 2003:

Culture name 'cy-gb' is not supported.

Can you advise how to setup Server 2003 to enable the Welsh culture.

Many thanks,

Rob.

I'm afraid I can't help with Server 2003, but I did notice that you
used "cy-GB" while the error message said "cy-gb" in lower case. If
that is a true reflection of what the error message said then that
might have a bearing on the problem.

rossum,

Cheers for the reply. I noticed the same thing, it appears to be 'normal'
for the error message to display lowercase cultureinfo name. As mentioned in
the post the code works okay on windows XP, but not on server 2003.
